About pixelate
A digital wall or night clock with simple retro design. Also shows you weather forecast. It will display your notifications which can be cancelled or opened from the app. If you listen to music you can switch to a simple music visualiser.
Usage:
You can use virtual buttons to switch modes and control music. There are 2 rows with 3 buttons each. On short tap the second row is to control music left side is previous in the middle it is play/pause and in the right third it is next. The upper left corner is toggle visualizer/picture the upper right one is open notification.
On long tap in the upper row you can switch to night mode, choose a picture to show and cancel notification. The lower row will show/hide the status bar.
Notifications can be shown only if you give the notification access permission. This needs to be done in the android settings. Also on some devices you have to separately enable the "show on lockscreen" permission.
Needed permissions:
